Owners will no longer have to worry about oil or gas refills and can contribute to a cleaner environment with this green machine.

The adjustable width and height of the tills make it perfect to work on a variety of soils and land areas. The width can be reduced for narrower strips usually between rows of land while increasing the width is a better option to cover a wider area.

To ensure that is occupies less storage space, just remove the handle bar or resize it so that it occupies very less space within your garage.

Keep removing the wines and leaves at regular intervals which can at times get stuck in between the tills and slow down the machine while also heating up the motor.

If the machine is found to buckle or jump, just move it forward at a faster pace to continue tilling uniformly.

If the land is found to be too hard to till, just wet it a little bit before using the machine on it for tilling.
